Walk for Me, Baby!

Mary-Ann has a baby brother and she's trying to help him learn to walk. Finally she succeeds, but then isn't sure it was such a clever idea as he steals her biscuit. The story covers a pleasing topic and offers comfort to youngsters who may find having babies around rather difficult. Good repetitive phrases in the text lure the listening child to take part.
